I'm so glad you're with us here on the Clark Howard Show where it's about your empowerment

with knowledge so you can save more and spend less and don't let anyone ever rip you off.

Coming up in a few minutes in today's Clark Rages moment, I am going to guarantee you

that you are going to become stinking rich.

And coming up you out later, a lot of bruhaha about your privacy.

Have you ever seen one of these creepy systems in an airport that instead of

having to see your boarding pass or your driver's license or whatever, or passport,

artificial intelligence face scan determines who you are and opens the gate for you to board the

plane. There's a lot of stuff coming with privacy and your personal information being in

these vast databases. I'm going to freak you out and tell you why, well, only in certain ways

should you be freaked out. How's that? There's a lot of people on this privacy stuff tend to be

either completely disguised falling or I don't care. So consumer reports is an organization that

I trust and believe in very much. And a lot of people who are younger look at consumer reports

as their granddad or grandmums publication. And that's a mistake because consumer reports

is the real deal. You know, it is so much more trustworthy than reviews of anything you see on any

website because they don't play favorites and they don't take money from anybody. All they're

about is getting to what they believe empirically to be the facts. Well, consumer reports took on

media darling by bashing the new Tesla Model 3, which the fate of Tesla rides on them successfully

launching and selling a massive number of Model 3s that nominally start at a list price of 35,000.

But street price, most people buying one are paying up or 40s to maybe even breaking 50,000

buying a Model 3. And consumer reports did say the 3 has the longest range of any vehicle

they've ever tested that's electric 350 miles, which is a lot more than Tesla even claims.
